Ya Bradley the clown , when he 1st joined espn he was quiet as a mouse, then started opening up& opening up , now can't stand the guy.

So, in the aftermath of Haney-Garcia, I really only know one new thing. Things that are not new:

-Ryan Garcia is still an undisciplined, self centered boxer. To come in that far overweight shows he either cannot make the contracted fight limit (not likely) or made the decision not to (more likely). This shows how little he actually cares about his opponent, the sport, or his word.

-Golden Boy are a bunch of enablers, which is on par with every other promotion out there so no loss there.

-Haney may be looking bad to most, but I saw a fighter who accepted the fight even though he did not have to. When beat down, he picked himself off the canvas and continued to fight hard against an obviously stronger opponent. He did not stop trying to win. Everyone else can kick him right now, but I actually have grown to respect him a little more in this defeat.

-Haney still is a champion.

What is the one new thing I know?

Ryan Garcia, now firmly a heel, will be a very profitable name going forward. As I expected him to lose, this is a shocking thing to me. He played the role of the bad guy and the rule breaker, and it worked in a dominating performance he gets to wave in everyone's faces and it will pay dividends for him and Golden Boy for more than a few fights for sure. The only other upset that has had anything even close to this effect is Teofimo Lopez over Lomachenko, and Lopez was on the rise at the time where Garcia was firmly in the "win or else" category. No way we can undervalue Lopez betting it all on himself and this strategy and it actually working.

Bradley is just making ****** excuses because he needs to quit! Be a professional and keep your man’s word! He is hurting and crying fault because he lost. Loma lost to Salido who came in overly heavy at the time of the fight. Castillo vs Corrales II same deal Castillo ko Corrales and there wasn’t so much turnboil like now. This is not new! The fact is Haney accepted the fight and took the money period! Haney knew the consequences, but like Bradley, he also thought that Garcia was going to be a walk in the park. Well both of you were wrong. Haney paid a costly price by losing, and Bradley you lost all creditably by not keeping your word. Quit!

Read a few of the ladies comments in here. I don’t hate any boxer. I’m a fan of BOXING, not a guy with a crush.

All that said, Garcia played the game PERFECTLY and Haney fell for the act.
He played his best hand. Now everybody knows.
When Garcia meets Teo, Shaku, Crawford, Boots. He will find out that he IS NOT an eilite boxer.
I dont consider Haney all that good but the division is so soft that anyone can look good.

All of them high-profile commentators got punked, didn't they? Paulie even lost $100K betting on Haney. I didn't see a single person, professional boxer, veteran, aficionado, you name it, that didn't favor Haney winning the fight. Devin Haney kept saying he'll KO Garcia. So it's pretty much a cherrypick fight gone horribly wrong.

My buddy Miguel make 14k betting on Garcia, he's not an expert.

I disagree. Maybe if bill and Devin didn’t talk all reckless before the fight but the way they acted no asterisk on this win just an assterkicked

[PunchyPotorff]

This coming from Bradley... the clown who admitted he lost to Pac, yet didn't mind taking the W...
and soon thereafter switched gears and said he won the fight. Of the 3... chrome dome Bradley
definitely has the biggest ego. I miss commentary by TRUE legends like Gil Clancy and Emanuel
Steward. Clowns like Bradley and Mauro 'mama mia' Ranallo can take a hike for all I care.

Timmy's head might be the size of large medicine ball, but he's just being honest. Ryan cheated, plain and simple. Cheating is cheating whether its with gloves with padding removed, clomifene, clenbuterol, EPO, or not weight cutting to have a strength advantage. To be fair, Devin invited ppl to cheat by messing with Victor Conte and SNAC. Many ppl think Conte makes designer drugs that are undetectable. Idk if that's true or not, and its not an excuse for what Ryan did. Just saying.
Anyway this beating will never compare to how Malignaggi was ay-null ****d by Shawn Porter. That was a butt f...king for the ages. I watch that fight everytime Paulie says something ****** out of his mouth, which is pretty often. I watch that, and I watch Paulie vs.Miguel "Pink Crocs" Cotto. I remember back in the days I was riding the subway back from watching the golden gloves. On the train was Paulie's former trainer Billy Giles. I said "yo why u got Paulie carrying his hands so low like he's Hector Camacho when u know he's not?" He looked at me like I had 6 heads lol
